spent so much money on this game trying to just be able to have the things that the other player has so that I can win and it’s ridiculous I do like the game it is nice. there’s way too many ads in the game so they’re already making money like that so then they shouldn’t be taxing their players the way they are just to win the game. but the thing is that unless you’re rich and you have plenty of money it’s game with little rewards and lots and lots of paying out and it’s not even fun anymore I’m on like Level 100 and it’s ridiculous the amount of money I have to pay to be able to beat these people because they send those little bots in with an artillery of different things to kill you so that you can’t beat it I play the same level over and over and over again and there’s just no way to beat it unless you have unless you pay out big-time . im probably out like $400 on just this one game.. and unfortunately it stops today I can’t beat the guy because he’s stacked with his whole artillery full of things to kill me that’s not how this game is actually played there is no freaking bombs and other things to kill you to steal your marbles n its not right and I don’t wanna pay anymore I’ve paid enough. developers need to realize that there’s real people playing real games here that enjoy their games that they’re ruining and I’m sure I’m not the only one stop trying to profit off of us and just make the game you already have the ads to make money it’s ridiculous what you’re doing.

Easy, Stressfree
lyss.alyssa0
I’ve seen a lot of low reviews and it’s kind of surprising. At first, I hated the opponents power ups. I thought the game was the original game of Mancala so the use of power ups was confusing at first. However, once you realize how they work, it’s a fun game. I wish there was a game play where you also could just play the basic board game without the power ups as well though. I’ve read a few reviews saying it’s impossible or really difficult, but Mancala is a puzzle game 😭 it’s not supposed to be easy. It’s about strategy. And you can watch an ad for more power ups if you need, so I don’t see it as a dealbreaker. I’ve completed all levels right now so I can speak on it that it’s not impossible, you just gotta learn the power ups and use strategy. It’s honestly fun, not super exciting but it’s not supposed to be. It makes time pass and it’s not stressful. It’s genuinely my most played game on my phone. I also really love strategy and puzzle games so if you’re more into action then this isn’t for you.

Good Game/Bad Bug

I have enjoyed playing this game for the most part. I think the power-ups were a creative addition to a classic game. However, I do wish there were a mode to play without them as the computer can be insufferable sometimes. I’ve ready many other reviews about this same problem, and it sounds like the developer is looking into it which is hopeful. I appreciate a dev who listens to their audience. I am now on level 56 and have come across a bug that no longer allows me to play. The star chest at the top left of the main page glows like it is ready to be open and does not allow me to click on anything else besides it. It is not ready to be opened however. I have tried redownloading the app and made sure it is up to date. Hopefully this bug can be patched soon so I can continue to play. So overall I would recommend this game but be warned that if you come across this bug you may no longer be able to play.

Not very fun! 0/10
Unfairloloool
I’ve never ever written a review ever in my life so I never thought to do this one. But I’ve just had a very unpleasant experience with this game. I would suggest to not download it and if you do delete it after you pass 10 levels. It was a fun game at first don’t get me wrong but after a certain point the computer matchups are just way too hard!!! They get power ups every single time and are able to use all at once while we can okay use one at once. They start first every time and are always getting a better start than we are and always able to make it to where they can always get another turn. It’s is so unfair!! Even when you attempt to make a move they always are one step ahead and counter it so easily. So not fun I understand the difficulty needs to be higher the more you play and win but honestly I was spending hours trying and trying on certain levels just to beat them. It was a fun game until it just became to hard to even think of what to do. I have deleted the game and don’t recommend downloading to anyone.
